INFUSCO ROLEPLAY SETTING
The city is an American city, and is a representation of any American
city, therefore it is nameless. It does, however, have a name, it's
just that it's not mentioned.
The weather
is what America is experiencing here and now, as all these Roleplays
are supposed to be happening in today's day and age, with all
the modern conveniences available, so consider this when proposing
a roleplay start - it's a good idea to discuss the weather and
time of day/night, for a lot of people have characters that can't
venture out in the daytime hours. Sometimes it's fun to have a
rainy RP as well.
This particular
city draws a large crowd of supernatural beings and it has to
do with a number of leylines criss-crossing each other in 'hotspots'.
Pisky Memorial Park is one of them, a few of the City Streets
is another. Numbers of the supernatural are high here.
Also, this
particular city has a high percentage of homosexuality, and the
population knows it and DOES NOT FIND IT PECULIAR. That's just
how it is in the nameless city - it is a haven, in more ways than
one.
Roughly five
milliion (5,000,000) people live in the Nameless City. About 400
are vampires, 800 are demons, and another 2500 or so are 'other
types'. Mortals still outnumber the supernaturals by a hell of
a lot, and vampires have a fairly united front.
The Oligarchy
is a council made up of a representative from each of supernatural
beings, including vampires, demons, werewolves, shapeshifters
and fae. There is NOT a representative for human beings on the
council. The council ensure that the supernaturals remain hidden.
Two years
ago, Lazarus and another vampire took over the city with the help
of a number of supernatural creatures - a 'coming out' party that
had mortals fleeing the streets in shock. That was then put to
order after a year by the Oligarchy, who resumed the normality
from chaos, and the cover story of a 'gas leak from a nearby chemical
factory that made people hallucinate' was set up. Most people
believe it, some people suppress the memory, others doubt it.
Whatever the case, the ones in the know are rarer than the ones
who don't know. People have a way of not wanting to know an ugly
truth.
After a year
of peace, Lazarus has dethroned the Luminary (Leader of the Oligarchy)
and taken his role. So far things remain unchanged.
